Album Notes

Freight Train Pajamas is an even mix of Padovano's performance characters, The Ironbound Crooner and Rainy Day Hobo, a mix of jazz-blues and crooning-styled songs. There are two instrumentals on this collection; Ballet, and Hopping Road.
The structure of the album captures The Ironbound Crooner's early years. There is an alternation of light-hearted songs from his repertoire and songs that describe his life and times which renders a more realistic description.

MUZIQ For EVERYONE:By Natalie Adis (USA):

"This man truly is a folk/acoustic genius."

Cafe Improv TV30 (Broadcasts from the
Arts Council Of Princeton):

"John Padovano
Exquisite jazz voicings on his guitar and subtle, sophisticated
vocals make John our keynote act of the evening.
John is a favorite of both our in-house and
television audiences. "

Adam Lewis - The Islander/ asbury park press/gannett papers:

"John Padovano is a throw-back to a simpler time when compact discs weren't even a thought and good music came on the radio from legendary crooners."
